Bubbles Acting as Micro End‐Effectors for Dexterous Manipulation and Sensing in Aqueous Environment
Inspired by bubbles, this article proposes a low‐cost method for multifunctional manipulation and sensing using microbubbles in aqueous environments. Bubbles are easily generated in situ, enabling the safe and adaptive handling of microobjects and sensing of microforces and surface textures.

Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy
We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...

Electrostatic Actuation Induces Competing Adhesion and Vibration Regimes at Fingertip Contact
Electric fields modulate fingertip–surface contact to create artificial touch sensations. The mechanisms underlying electrostatic friction, however, remain unclear. Direct imaging and friction measurements under oscillating electric fields showed that adhesion dominates at high frequencies, while vibration contributes substantially at the lower ...
